Job 20:5-16 That the gladnesse of the vngodlie hath ben short, and that the ioy of hypocrites continued but the twinckling of an eye

Bishops⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ That the gladnesse of the vngodlie hath ben short, and that the ioy of hypocrites continued but the twinckling of an eye ⁶ Though he be magnified vp to the heauen, so that his head reacheth vnto the cloudes ⁷ Yet at a turne he perisheth for euer, insomuch that they which haue seene him, shall say, Where is he ⁸ He shall vanishe as a dreame, so that he can no more be founde, and shal passe away as a vision in the night ⁹ So that the eye which sawe him before, shal haue no more sight of him, and his place shall know him no more ¹⁰ His children shalbe faine to agree with the poore, and his handes shall restore their goodes ¹¹ From his youth his bones are full of pleasures, but now shall it lye downe within him in the earth ¹² When wickednesse was sweete in his mouth, he hyd it vnder his tongue ¹³ That he fauoured, that would he not forsake, but kept it close in his throte ¹⁴ The bread that he did eate, is turned to the poyson of serpentes within his bodye ¹⁵ The riches that he deuoured shall he parbreake againe: for God shall drawe them out of his belly ¹⁶ He shall sucke the gall of serpentes, and the adders tongue shall slay him
